      the securities proposed to be disposed of may lawfully be so disposed of without
      registration, qualification and legend.

    4. Registration
      Procedures.
      Whenever the Company is required by the provisions of Section 3 to use
      reasonable best efforts to effect the registration of any Registrable Securities
      under the Securities Act, the Company will, as soon as reasonably
      possible:

    


    (a) prepare
      and file with the Commission a registration statement on “shelf” registration
      statement on Form S-1 or such other form of general applicability satisfactory
      to Company providing for the registration and sale on a continuous or delayed
      basis with respect to such securities and use its best efforts to cause such
      registration statement to become and remain effective for the period of the
      distribution contemplated thereby (determined as hereinafter
      provided);

     

    (b) prepare
      and file with the Commission such amendments and supplements to such
      registration statement and the prospectus used in connection therewith as may
      be
      necessary to keep such registration statement effective until the earliest
      to
      occur of (i) the date that all of the securities registered thereunder have
      been
      sold pursuant thereto or (ii) until, by reason of Rule 144(k) under the
      Securities Act or any other rule of similar effect, the securities registered
      thereunder are no longer required to be registered for the sale thereof by
      the
      Holder without restriction. 

    


    (c) furnish
      to each seller of Registrable Securities and to each underwriter, if any, such
      number of copies of the registration statement and the prospectus included
      therein (including each preliminary prospectus) as such persons reasonably
      may
      request in order to facilitate the public sale or other disposition of the
      Registrable Securities covered by such registration statement;

    


    (d) use
      its
      best efforts to register or qualify the Registrable Securities covered by such
      registration statement under the securities or "blue sky" laws of such
      jurisdictions as the sellers of the Shares and the Registrable Securities or,
      in
      the case of an underwritten public offering, the managing underwriter reasonably
      shall request, provided,
      however,
      that
      the Company shall not for any such purpose be required to qualify generally
      to
      transact business as a foreign corporation in any jurisdiction where it is
      not
      so qualified or to consent to general service of process in any such
      jurisdiction;

    


    (e) use
      its
      best efforts to cause the Registrable Securities to be quoted on the OTC
      Bulleting Board or to list the Registrable Securities covered by such
      registration statement with any securities exchange on which the Common Stock
      of
      the Company is then listed; and

    


    (f) make
      available for inspection by each seller of Registrable Securities, any
      underwriter participating in any distribution pursuant to such registration
      statement, and any attorney, accountant or other agent retained by such seller
      or underwriter, all financial and other records, pertinent corporate documents
      and properties of the Company, and cause the Company's officers, directors
      and
      employees to supply all information reasonably requested by any such seller,
      underwriter, attorney, accountant or agent in connection with such registration
      statement.

    


    (g) provide
      and cause to be maintained a transfer agent and registrar for all Registrable
      Securities from and after a date not later than the effective date of such
      Registration Statement.

    


    (h) cooperate
      with Holders including Registrable Securities in such registration and the
      managing underwriters, if any, to facilitate the timely preparation and delivery
      of amending or supplementing any prospectus supplement and any certificates
      representing Registrable Securities to be sold.

    


    (i) in
      the
      case of an underwritten offering, cause any one of the senior executive officers
      of the Company to participate in the customary “road show” presentations that
      may be reasonably requested by the underwriters and otherwise to facilitate,
      cooperate with and participate in each proposed offering contemplated herein
      and
      customary selling efforts related thereto.

    


    (j) in
      connection with each registration hereunder, each seller of Registrable
      Securities will furnish to the Company in writing such information with respect
      to such seller and the proposed distribution by such seller as reasonably shall
      be necessary in order to assure compliance with federal and applicable state
      securities laws.

     

    (k) in
      connection with each registration pursuant to Section 3 covering an underwritten
      public offering, the Company and the Holder agree to enter into a written
      agreement with the managing underwriter selected by the Company containing
      such
      provisions as are customary in the securities business for such an arrangement
      between such underwriter and companies of the Company's size and investment
      stature.


    
      
        
        

      

      
        
        

        
          

        

      

      
        
        

      

    

    


    5. Suspension
      of Use of Registration Statement.
      The
      Holder agrees that, upon receipt of any notice from the Company of (A) the
      happening of any event which makes any statements made in the registration
      statement or related prospectus filed pursuant to this Investor Rights
      Agreement, or any document incorporated or deemed to be incorporated therein
      by
      reference, untrue in any material respect or which requires the making of any
      changes in such registration statement or prospectus so that, in the case of
      such registration statement, it will not contain any untrue statement of a
      material fact or omit to state any material fact required to be stated therein
      or necessary to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstance under
      which they were made, not misleading or (B) that, in the judgment of the
      Company’s Board of Directors, it is advisable to suspend use of the prospectus
      for a discrete period of time due to pending corporate developments which are
      or
      may be material to the Company but have not been disclosed in the registration
      statement or in relevant public filings with the Commission, or (C) the
      Commission has issued a stop order suspending the effectiveness of the
      registration statement, such Holder will forthwith discontinue disposition
      of
      such Registrable Securities covered by such registration statement or prospectus
      until it is advised in writing by the Company that use of the applicable
      prospectus may be resumed, and has received copies of any additional or
      supplemented filings that are incorporated or deemed to be incorporated by
      reference in such prospectus; provided, however, that the Company may not
      suspend use of the prospectus pursuant to the foregoing clause (B) more than
      90
      consecutive calendar days or an aggregate of 120 calendar days in any
      twelve-month period without incurring or accruing the obligation to pay
      additional interest pursuant to Section 10. The Company shall use all reasonable
      best efforts to insure that the use of the prospectus may be resumed as soon
      as
      practicable.

    The
      Company will pay all Registration Expenses in connection with the registration
      statement under Section 3. All Selling Expenses in connection with each
      registration statement under Section 3 shall be borne by the participating
      sellers in proportion to the number of shares sold by each, or by such
      participating sellers other than the Company (except to the extent the Company
      shall be a seller) as they may agree.

      and Contribution.
      (a) In
      the event of the registration of any Registrable Securities under the Securities

      contained in any registration statement under which such Registrable Securities
      were registered under the Securities Act pursuant to Section 3, any preliminary
      prospectus or final prospectus contained therein, or any amendment or supplement
      thereof, or arise out of or are based upon the omission or alleged omission
      to
      state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to
      make
      the statements therein not misleading, and will reimburse each such seller,
      each
      such underwriter and each such controlling person for any legal or other
      expenses reasonably incurred by them in connection with investigating or
      defending any such loss, claim, damage, liability or action, provided, however,
      that the Company will not be liable in any such case if and to the extent that
      any such loss, claim, damage or liability arises out of or is based upon an

      made in conformity with information furnished by any such seller, any such
      underwriter or any such controlling person in writing specifically for use

      such registration statement or prospectus.

    


    (b) In
      the
      event of a registration on behalf of the Holder of any of the Registrable
      Securities under the Securities Act pursuant to Section 3, the Holder, severally
      and not jointly, will indemnify and hold harmless the Company, each person,
      if
      any, who controls the Company within the meaning of the Securities Act, each
      officer of the Company who signs the registration statement, each director
      of
      the Company, each underwriter and each person who controls any underwriter
      within the meaning of the Securities Act, against all losses, claims, damages
      or
      liabilities, joint or several, to which the Company or such officer, director,
      underwriter or controlling person may become subject under the Securities Act
      or
      otherwise, insofar as such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions
      in
      respect thereof) arise out of or are based upon any untrue statement or alleged
      untrue statement of any material fact contained in the registration statement
      under which such Registrable Securities was registered under the Securities
      Act
      pursuant to Section 3, any preliminary prospectus or final prospectus contained
      therein, or any amendment or supplement thereof, or arise out of or are based

      and
      controlling person for any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by them
      in connection with investigating or defending any such loss, claim, damage,
      liability or action, provided, however, that the Holder will be liable hereunder
      in any such case if and only to the extent that any such loss, claim, damage
      or
      liability arises out of or is based upon an untrue statement or alleged untrue
      statement or omission or alleged omission made in reliance upon and in
      conformity with information pertaining to the Holder furnished in writing to
      the
      Company by the Holder specifically for use in such registration statement or
      prospectus, and provided, further, however, that the liability of the Holder
      hereunder shall be limited to the proportion of any such loss, claim, damage,
      liability or expense which is equal to the proportion that the public offering,
      price of the shares sold by the Holder under such registration statement bears
      to the total public offering price of all securities sold thereunder, but not
      in
      any event to exceed the proceeds received by the Holder from the sale of
      Registrable Securities covered by such registration statement.


    
      
        
        

      

      
        
        

        
          

        

      

      
        
        

      

    

    


    (c) Promptly
      after receipt by an indemnified party hereunder of notice of the. commencement
      of any action, such indemnified party shall, if a claim in respect thereof
      is to
      be made against the indemnifying party hereunder, notify the indemnifying party
      in writing thereof, but the omission so to notify the indemnifying party shall
      not relieve it from any liability which it may have to such indemnified party
      other than under this Section 6 and shall only relieve it from any liability
      which it may have to such indemnified party under this Section 6 if and to
      the
      extent the indemnifying party is prejudiced by such omission. In case any such
      action shall be brought against any indemnified party and it shall notify the
      indemnifying party of the commencement thereof, the indemnifying party shall
      be
      entitled to participate in and, to the extent it shall wish, to assume and
      undertake the defense thereof with counsel satisfactory to such indemnified
      party, and, after notice from the indemnifying party to such indemnified party
      of its election so to assume and undertake the defense thereof, the indemnifying
      party shall not be liable to such indemnified party under this Section 6 for
      any
      legal expenses subsequently incurred by such indemnified party in connection
      with the defense thereof other than reasonable costs of investigation and of
      liaison with counsel so selected, provided,
      however,
      that,
      if the defendants in any such action include both the indemnified party and
      the
      indemnifying party and the indemnified party shall have reasonably concluded
      that there may be reasonable defenses available to it which are different from
      or additional to those available to the indemnifying party or if the interests
      of the indemnified party reasonably may be deemed to conflict with the interests
      of the indemnifying party, the indemnified party shall have the right to select
      a separate counsel and to assume such legal defenses and otherwise to
      participate in the defense of such action, with the expenses and fees of such
      separate counsel and other expenses related to such participation to be
      reimbursed by the indemnifying party as incurred.

    


    (d) In
      order
      to provide for just and equitable contribution to joint liability under the
      Securities Act in any case in which either (i) the Holder exercising rights
      under this Agreement, or any controlling person of the Holder, makes a claim
      for
      indemnification pursuant to this Section 6 but it is judicially determined
      (by
      the entry of a final judgment or decree by a court of competent jurisdiction
      and
      the expiration of time to appeal to the denial of the last right of appeal)
      that
      such indemnification may not be enforced in such case notwithstanding the fact
      that this Section 6 provides for indemnification in such case, or (ii)
      contribution under the Securities Act may be required on the part of any the
      Holder or any such controlling person in circumstances for which indemnification
      is provided under this Section 6; then, and in each such case, the Company
      and
      the Holder will contribute to the aggregate losses, claims, damages or
      liabilities to which they may be subject (after contribution from others) in
      such proportion so that the Holder is responsible for the portion represented
      by
      the percentage that the public offering price, if any, of its Registrable
      Securities offered by the registration statement bears to the public offering
      price, if any, of all securities offered by such registration statement, and
      the
      Company is responsible for the remaining portion; provided, however, that,
      in
      any such case, (A) the Holder will not be ruled to contribute any amount in
      excess of the public offering price, if any, of all such Registrable Securities
      offered by it pursuant to such registration statement; and (B) no person or
      entity guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section
      11(f) of the Securities Act) will be entitled to contribution from any person
      or
      entity who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation.

    


    (e) No
      indemnifying party shall, without the prior written consent of the indemnified
      party, effect any settlement, compromise or consent to the entry of judgment
      in
      any pending or threatened action, suit or proceeding in respect to which any
      indemnified party is or could have been a party and indemnity was or could
      have
      been sought hereunder by such indemnified party, unless such settlement,
      compromise or consent (x) includes an unconditional release of such indemnified
      party from all liability on claims that are the subject matter of such action,
      suit or proceeding and (y) does not include a statement as to or an admission
      of
      fault, culpability or a failure to act by or on behalf of any indemnified
      party.

    


    8. Rule
      144 Reporting.
      With a
      view to making available the benefits of certain rules and regulations of the
      Commission which may at any time permit the sale of the Registrable Securities
      to the public without registration, at all times after 90 days after the
      Qualified Offering or the Qualified Registration shall have become effective,
      the Company agrees to:

    


    (a) make
      and
      keep public information available, as those terms are understood and defined
      in
      Rule 144 under the Securities Act;

    


    (b) use
      reasonable efforts to file with the Commission in a timely manner all reports
      and other documents required of the Company under the Securities Act and the
      Exchange Act; and

    


    (c) furnish
      to the Holder forthwith upon request a written statement by the Company as
      to
      its compliance with the reporting requirements of such Rule 144 and of the
      Securities Act and the Exchange Act, a copy of the most recent annual or
      quarterly report of the Company, and such other reports and documents so filed
      by the Company as the Holder may reasonably request in availing the Holder
      of
      any rule or regulation of the Commission allowing the Holder to sell any
      Registrable Securities without registration.


    
      
        
        

      

      
        
        

        
          

        

      

      
        
        

      

    

    


    9. “Lockup”
      Agreement.
      The
      Holder hereby agrees that such Holder shall not sell, transfer, make any short
      sale of, grant any option for the purchase of, or enter into any hedging or
      similar transaction with the same economic effect as a sale, any shares of
      Common Stock (or other securities) of the Company held by the Holder for a
      period specified by the representative of the underwriters of Common Stock
      (or
      other securities) of the Company not to exceed one hundred eighty (180) days
      following the effective date of the Company’s Qualified Offering or Qualified
      Registration.

    


    10. Additional
      Interest.
      In the
      event that a registration statement has not become effective by the deadline
      specified in Section 3, additional interest will accrue on the Debentures at
      a
      rate per annum of 0.25% of the principal amount of the Debentures, payable
      quarterly in arrears on the 15th
      day of
      October, January, April and July of each year.

    


    11. Board
      Designee and Information.
      The
      undersigned Holder shall have the right to nominate one nominee to the Company’s
      board of directors (the “Board Designee”). The initial Board Designee of the
      Holder shall be John Park. At the meeting of the board of directors of the
      Company scheduled for July 30, 2008 or within one month thereafter, the Company
      shall appoint the Board Designee to the board of directors and shall, if
      necessary, expand the board of directors by one member to create a vacancy
      for
      such purpose. In the event that the Board Designee ceases to be a member of
      the
      board of directors, so long as the undersigned Holder and its affiliates
      collectively beneficially own at least $6,000,000 principal amount of the
      Debentures or 857,143 shares of Common Stock, the undersigned Holder may select
      another person as a nominee for the Board Designee to fill the vacancy created
      thereby. All obligations of the Company pursuant to this Section 11 shall
      terminate at such time as the undersigned and its affiliates collectively
      beneficially own less than $6,000,000 principal amount of the Debentures or
      857,143 shares of Common Stock. In the event that the Company is no longer
      subject to the reporting requirements of Section 13 or 15(d) of the Exchange
      Act, the Company shall continue to provide the Holder, annual, quarterly and
      current reports or other information and documents containing substantially
      the
      same information as would have been required to be filed with the Commission
      had
      the Company continued to be subject to such reporting requirements.

     

    12. Miscellaneous.

     

    (a) All
      covenants and agreements contained in this Agreement by or on behalf of any
      of
      the parties hereto shall bind and inure to the benefit of the respective
      successors and assigns of the parties hereto (including without limitation
      permitted transferees of any Shares or Registrable Securities), whether so
      expressed or not.

    


    (b) All
      notices, requests, consents and other communications hereunder shall be in
      writing and shall be mailed by certified or registered mail, return receipt
      requested, postage prepaid, or telexed, in the case of non-U.S. residents,
      addressed as follows:

    


    if
      to the
      Company or any other party hereto, at the address of such party set
      forth

    in
      the
      Subscription Agreement;

    


    if
      to the
      Holder, at the address of the Holder set forth in the Subscription
      Agreement;

    


    or,
      in
      any case, at such other address or addresses as shall have been furnished in
      writing to the Company (in the case of the Holder) or to the Holder (in the
      case
      of the Company) in accordance with the provisions of this
      paragraph.

    


    (c) Notwithstanding
      the place where this Agreement may be executed by any of the parties hereto,
      all
      the terms and provisions hereof shall be construed in accordance with and
      governed by the laws of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts, without giving effect
      to its conflict of law principles. Any dispute which may arise out of or in
      connection with this Agreement shall be adjudicated before a court located
      in
      Boston, Massachusetts and the parties hereby submit to the exclusive
      jurisdiction of the courts of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts located in
      Boston, Massachusetts and of the federal courts in Boston, Massachusetts with
      respect to any action or legal proceeding commenced by any party, and
      irrevocably waive any objection they now or hereafter may have respecting the
      venue of any such action or proceeding brought in such a court or respecting
      the
      fact that such court is an inconvenient forum, relating to or arising out of
      this Agreement or any acts or omissions relating to the sale of the Shares,
      and
      each of the undersigned consents to the service of process in any such action
      or
      legal proceeding by means of registered or certified mail, return receipt
      requested, in care of the address set forth below or such other address as
      the
      undersigned shall furnish in writing to the Company. In the event any such
      action is brought, whether at law or in equity, then the prevailing party shall
      be paid its reasonable attorney's fees, expenses and disbursements arising
      out
      of such action. Each of the undersigned hereby waives trial by jury in any
      action or proceeding involving, directly or indirectly, any matter (whether
      sounding in tort, contract, fraud or otherwise) in any way arising out of or
      in
      connection with this Agreement or the Holder’s purchase of a
      Debenture.


    
      
        
        

      

      
        
        

        
          

        

      

      
        
        

      

    

    


    (d) This
      Agreement may not be amended or modified, and no provision hereof may be waived,
      without the written consent of the Company and the Holders of at least a
      majority of the outstanding Registrable Securities, including Blum Strategic
      Partners IV, L.P. to the extent that Blum Strategic Partners IV, L.P.
      beneficially owns any Registrable Securities. 

    


    (e) This
      Agreement may be executed in two or more counterparts, each of which shall
      be
      deemed an original, but all of which together shall constitute one and the
      same
      instrument.

    


    (f) The
      obligations of the Company to register the Registrable Securities under this
      Agreement shall terminate on the date that the Holders or any transferees of
      such Holders who would require such registration to effect a sale of Registrable
      Securities no longer beneficially own Registrable Securities.

    


    (g) If
      any
      provision of this Agreement shall be held to be illegal, invalid or
      unenforceable, such illegality, invalidity or unenforceability shall attach
      only
      to such provision and shall not in any manner affect or render illegal, invalid
      or unenforceable any other provision of this Agreement, and this Agreement
      shall
      be carried out as if any such illegal, invalid or unenforceable provision were
      not contained herein.

    


    Please
      indicate your acceptance of the foregoing by signing and returning the enclosed
      counterpart of this letter, whereupon this Agreement shall be a binding
      agreement between the Company and you.
